In context
1 Yusufu akaletwa Misri. Potifa, aliyekuwa afisa wa Farao mkuu wa walinzi na Mmisri, akamnunua kutoka kwa Waishmaeli, waliokuwa wamempeleka pale.
2 Yahwe alikuwa pamoja na Yusufu na akawa mtu aliyefanikiwa. Aliishi katika nyumba ya Mmisri bwana wake.
3 Bwana wake akaona kwamba Yahwe alikuwa pamoja naye na kwamba Yahwe alifanikisha kila kitu alichokifanya.
4 Yusufu akapata kibali mbele zake. Akamtumikia Potifa. Potifa akamfanya msimamizi juu ya nyumba yake, na kila alichokimiliki, akakiweka chini ya uangalizi wake.
5 Ikawa alipomfanya msimamizi juu ya nyumba yake na juu ya kila kitu alichomiliki, Yahwe akaibariki nyumba ya Mmisri kwa sababu ya Yusufu. Baraka za Yahwe zilikuwa juu ya kila kitu alichokuwa nacho Potifa nyumbani na shambani.
6 Potifa akaweka kila alichokuwa nacho chini ya uangalizi wa Yusufu. Hakuwa na haja ya kufikiri juu ya lolote isipokuwa chakula alichokula tu. Basi Yusufu alikuwa kijana mzuri na wa kuvutia.
7 Ikawa baada ya hayo mke wa bwana wake akamtamani Yusufu. Akamwambia, “Lala nami.”
